Daylight savings

I arrived at work tonight to realize I got the "lucky" shift of the year.

The shift that brings that wretched 2:00 hour twice.  TWICE.  The point of night shift where you feel like scratching your eyeballs so that they will stay open.  Blegh.

Oh, daylight savings time, I have hated you since I became a parent, and now since I've switched to the dark side at work...

Once you become either 1)a parent, or 2)work nightshift...that luxurious extra hour of sleep is non-existant.

Because while the rest of the world is snoozing you are up.

and so it is.

*****

I shouldn't end on such a terrible note...so -
1)I am thankful to have a job that keeps me up for a 13 hour shift instead of 12...
2)I am over.the.moon. thankful to have kiddos that wake me up so I don't get the effects that extra hour brings...

and I am SUPER thankful for a husband who will watch our kiddos so I can sleep today.
